TCS inks pact with Garuda Indonesia Airlines for MRO solution

Garuda, with the TCS SWIFT MRO solution replaced over 50 legacy applications

Country's largest software services firm Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has deployed a maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) application for Garuda Indonesia Airlines.

With the TCS SWIFT MRO solution, Garuda replaced over 50 legacy applications, implemented over 300 business processes, and migrated over three million records of data for 140 aircrafts and fitted parts into a unified solution, TCS said in a statement.

The first phase of the project, now live, comprises the SAP-based end-to-end pre-configured SWIFT MRO solution for MRO, supply chain processes, finance and human resources modules, it added.

Garuda's relationship with TCS began in 2012 when the airline sought a solution to upgrade, consolidate and enhance its MRO technology infrastructure, which was spread across numerous applications from multiple vendors.

"Phase II is coming soon, which will further help the airline deliver exemplary aircraft maintenance services in line with our strong growth and development of a global leading airline brand," Garuda Indonesia EVP Strategy, Business Development and Risk Management Judi Rifajantoro said.
